Sorry I haven't been on here posting this thread much this week. After being sick last week, I was out of the loop a little. But then on Monday I posted and only one other person posted. If there's not much interest, I don't know if I will keep starting. Let me know if you still want to see this post.

Did you stay within your nutritional goals?
Went over a little bit.

Did I reach yesterday's personal goal?
I decided to try eating 6 small meals rather than 3 bigger ones. It worked pretty well.

What did I do yesterday that I am proud of?
Went to McDonalds and didn't get any fries!

What would I have done differently?
Only would've ordered 1 KFC Snacker instead of two and drank all my water.

What is today's personal goals?
Journal Every Bite, Drink my all my water.

    Sorry I haven't been here either. I have been stressing a lot. My son is signing up for the Marines and as a momma, I am scared. We signed papers yesterday and he will be swearing in July 1. He still has one year of high school left until he goes to basics.

    Did you stay within your nutritional goals? I did amazingly.

    Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? I didn't workout.

    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? Didn't cry in front of the Marines recruiter and embarass my son.

    What would I have done differently? Rode my bike.

    What is today's personal goals? Try to chill a little bit and stay in my goals but not stress too much if I don't today.

    Wow, I'm sure that is stressful! I can understand how you could be worried. Good job at keeping it together in front of the recruiter, but I'm sure you wouldn't have been the first mom that cried!

    It sounds like you're doing good as far as staying on program for eating and exercising. Keep up the good work!

    I haven't been exercising as much as I should but work has been really crazy. I would probably feel a lot better stress wise if I did though. I will probably go for a ride or run this afternoon if it doesn't rain. Did you or are you going to sign up for the run/walk. My daugther signed up too. I was supposed to start couch to 5K this week but was too bummed. :sad: I am doing well on the food aspect though which is surprising since I tend to be a stress eater. :noway:
